HTTP Basic Authentication

Is HTTP Basic Authentication only available for Web APIs? Could it be used to login to other sections of Appian?

@mathieud, you can probably use a headless browser like HTMLUnit which is Java based. Using a headless browser you can navigate programmatically to web pages. Then you could use the wkhtmltopdf library to take a screenshot of the record dashboard.
There are many headless browsers available - PhantomJS is another one. I do not have experience with them though. The authentication can be specified to headless browser.
